It seems strange to me that ebump and echangelog can't share the user name and email address, but the manpages report: ebump(1) ~/.gentoo/gentool-env From this file, ebump will load the env vars AUTHORNAME and AUTHOREMAIL, which are used to generate proper ChangeLog entries. echangelog(1) ECHANGELOG_USER If echangelog can’t figure out your username for the entry, you should set ECHANGELOG_USER. For example, export ECHANGELOG_USER="Aron Griffis <agriffis@gentoo.org>" It would be nice if I didn't have to repeat my identity again (I already have it in environment for git, twice, and for Mercurial).
better to start using a project-wide variable GENTOO_AUTHOR_NAME GENTOO_AUTHOR_EMAIL GENTOO_COMMITTER_NAME GENTOO_COMMITTER_EMAIL
Works for me, having those differentiated is also a good idea if we're going to stress more on proxy maintainership.

So you might want take a look at http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoolkit?rev=561&view=rev Feel free to test :)
gentoolkit-dev-0.2.6.11 has been released. I will close after independent verification that the bug is fixed.
